About this product

Own a true piece of American numismatic history with the 1921 Silver Peace Dollar High Relief, the first issue in the iconic Peace Dollar series. Struck from .900 fine silver at the Philadelphia Mint, this vintage coin embodies the nation’s post–World War I optimism and artistic achievement. Graded in VG to XF (Very Good to Extremely Fine) condition, it retains visible detail and original character — offering collectors a tangible connection to one of the most celebrated U.S. silver dollars ever minted,

Following the end of World War I, the United States sought to commemorate the return of peace through a new silver dollar design. In 1921, sculptor Anthony de Francisci’s artwork was chosen for its beauty and symbolism. His design, inspired by his wife Teresa, captured the youthful spirit of Liberty wearing a radiant crown — a modern vision of peace, strength, and renewal.
The reverse features a bald eagle at rest, clutching an olive branch, perched on a rock inscribed with the word “PEACE.” Together, these images reflected America’s desire for harmony after years of global conflict.

The 1921 issue was struck in high relief, giving the design remarkable depth and dimension. However, the intricate relief proved difficult to strike efficiently, and later issues (1922–1935) were produced in standard relief — making the 1921 High Relief a one-year-only design and a key date for collectors.
